A week later, the zoo inspection team and Disney negotiation group boarded the plane to the United States.
Suming personally saw them off at the airport. Just before leaving, he held a brief internal eting in a room in the VIP lounge at the airport.
Aside from Li Wanting who had not yet joined the company, all mbers of the inspection team were young people from Taoyuan Film and Television, half of whom graduated from prestigious universities within the dostic industry.
The reason they joined the newly established Taoyuan Film and Television was partly because of Cai Liming's certain capabilities and reputation in the circle, but more so because they were interested in Mr. Su of the company, a legend after having visited Taoyuan Company.
Many of them were seeing Suming for the first ti. Surrounded by him at the airport, like stars around the moon, they bombarded him with questions. Cai Liming, glancing at the ti, said, "Everyone, if each of you talks with Mr. Su for three minutes, with so many people, we might as well not board the plane. How about this, before boarding, could Mr. Su say a few words to everyone? What do you think, Mr. Su?"
"Okay," Suming nodded and smiled, "This trip, Mr. Cai is the overall commander. I won't say too much in the way of complints. Those selected to join the inspection team are all excellent talents from our company. I trust, without saying much, you all can learn back from Hollywood the world-leading technology and thoughts, and in the future, beco the backbone of the company, and for the Huaxia film circle, make grand productions that truly carry Huaxia's style and align with the mainstream values of the world."
With just a simple sentence, he stirred excitent among the young employees.
He said he wouldn't offer praise, yet he ended up comnding everyone, while also subtly making two promises: personally, they could beco key employees; from a career perspective, the future goal was to make a real blockbuster, or to put it grandly, to turn Huaxia's movies into world cinema.
What can motivate young people with career ambitions most? It's money and ideals. Or to say, it's short-term goals and the long-term vision realized by consistently achieving short-term goals.
But the premise is to learn the good stuff from the foreigners.
A young male employee with glasses boldly asked, "Mr. Su, many of us are going abroad for the first ti, dealing with a big company like Disney. You asked us to learn the good things. Do you have any advice or guidance for us?"
This question truly represented the heart of many mbers of the inspection team and had significant relevance.
This group, except for Cai Liming, was primarily young people. Although they were top students in their fields at school, they had very little practical experience in film production.
Faced with the opportunity to learn from the world's largest dream factory for movies, in addition to excitent and thrill, there was more anxiety among the mbers.
Such an opportunity does not co often. Even those so-called top dostic companies usually can't get to cooperate with Disney, to be involved on their studio sets for a full inspection.
But how exactly should they learn? What content should they learn? Can they learn well, can they really acquire genuine skills? Such an opportunity may only co once in a lifeti, and it would be too much of a pity to waste it. Not to ntion failing to et the boss's expectations, they would also have a hard ti justifying it to themselves.
Just like them, Mr. Su in front of them was a young person, even younger than many of them. However, he started from scratch and established a grand business in just one year.
Successful people must have their thods and secrets, so they hoped Suming could give them so guidance and encouragent.
"Feels a bit like a dog trying to bite a hedgehog, eager but helpless about where to start?" Suming asked.
Everyone laughed and nodded.
Suming checked his watch, "Actually, I'm more like a layman when it cos to movies. A few months ago, I knew even less than you all. So, if you're asking to tell you how to learn skills from Disney, sorry, I can't help. However, I can share a discussion from a friend's social circle, which I think is quite reasonable. Everyone, take a seat."
As the boss was about to tell a story, the mbers ford a circle around him, curious and waiting for Suming to speak.
"A young man who had just entered the workforce went around asking successful people, 'In our unit, so people are doing the sa job, at the sa position, but why do others get higher bonuses than ? Why are their positions more secure? Why are they more favored by the leaders? Why do they get promoted quicker? Is there so secret to their success?'
There were many comnts in the social circle, so said to maintain good relationships with leaders, so said to get along well with colleagues, and others passed on many career tips...
In my view, none of them are incorrect, yet they are not entirely correct either.
As your boss, I can tell everyone that the company needs people who can withstand hardship, work hard and do substantive work. If you want to succeed, there's no trick. The person who gets promoted quickly definitely works more than others, endures more hardships than others. If you find yourself still having ti and energy to ponder why others get promoted and get raises, and after contemplating, you still have the energy to play several rounds of gas or chat online for a couple of hours, talk with friends… then my suggestion is don't think too much about it; it's pointless."
"But Mr. Su, so people have high IQs and EQs, so have connections and backgrounds. No matter how hard we work compared to them, our efforts seem half as effective," soone asked boldly.
"Heh, you've put that quite politely. Compared to those with true high IQs, high EQs, and backgrounds, your efforts tenfold might not even match a casual effort from them. I admit that. But you can't be reborn, and there's no science that makes your brain change overnight to increase your EQ or IQ.
The factors you can control are not the social environnt, not your family background, not your innate talents. The only thing in this world that truly belongs to you and you can control is your twenty-four hours each day. In this regard, there is no difference between the world's richest person and a beggar."
Seeing it was almost ti, Suming concluded, "I hope everyone makes the most of every day, every hour at Disney. Disappointing the boss isn't terrible. There are many bosses in the world, and you can simply switch to another company if you stop working for Tao Garden.
The world is full of injustice, therefore God has rcy on humanity, and He gives all mankind the sa twenty-four hours a day. Do not let down your own twenty-four hours. Because this may be the only chance in your lifeti when, even facing the world's richest people, even against national dignitaries, you can stand upright in equal opportunity."

Today is my birthday, and I have received many well-wishes from friends!
Honestly, as I get older, I hardly pay attention to it myself. I didn't expect so many readers to notice, and I'm very thankful to everyone!
I will go out to eat tonight, and when I return, there will be red envelopes appearing in the group...
